I've said it for ages.. The problem is not the wrestle or slow pllay the balls, I love it because it stops dummy half running. The problem is the coaching!!
The best footy is played off the back of off loads... Today's game was a classic because of the 2nd phase play.
Slow play the balls force creativity.. It brings the big guys back into the game with their off loading.. It brings the short passing game into it to win the dominant ruck.
You will need big guys to create the off load, which will then allow the smaller guys to exploit them ... Surely there are more possible positives to slow play the balls then negatives.
It will also ferris of those discressionary penalties ..
